The investigation into Dharmasthala's alleged mass burial case took a significant turn as a second individual, Jayanth T, presented key testimony to the Special Investigation Team (SIT). He claims firsthand knowledge of numerous illegal burials in the village, adding credence to suspicions of mass murder and sexual assault.
This development is timely, as the SIT conducts methodical excavations at multiple sites along the Netravathi riverbank, guided by a complaint from an anonymous former sanitation worker. Initial excavations revealed partial skeletal fragments, fueling further intrigue and urgency.
These recent allegations, spanning over two decades, have prompted state intervention. The unnamed complainant, previously employed in Dharmasthala, reported being coerced into burying bodies, including those showing signs of sexual abuse. His statement, now on record with a magistrate, offers troubling insights that continue to unfold.
